"Unr~lItn la1" Is Defense of Man1

Enborce.
Spartanihu rg, Nov. 27.--After a de
liberation of about three-quarte's of
an iourt, a cs.dons court Jiry late yes
ter'day afternlooni exonerated Cliff God
frey, of the charge of the niurder of
Robert 1. Ilanna, whom Ie shot and
fatally wotinded oil the morning of
eptember 24, at the Uodfrey home,
near Enorce.
Godfrey was put on trial for his
life yesterday morning. 'I'l verdliet
of "not guilty" was returnei about 6
o'clock, and Godfrey received con
gratulations upon the verdict from
hosts of friends who pressed around
him to shake his hand.
The "unwritten law" and a pica
of self-defense were the grounds upon
which (the defense w as conducted.
Thle defense sought to bring out that

foreman, who sa w a1 part of the
shooting, and a ne(tgro secttiol hand,
who was otn the handear with . I r.
Siencer at the lime, were also put
utpi by the slate as witnesses.
Defendantf onl Stand.
Godfrey took ithe stand in his own
defense, and this Is the first state
ment. (fhat ho has made so far as to
the affair.
The defendant stated that on the
morning of the shooting, Ifanna
cate to the field where he was work
ing, and stated that he was going to
Godfrey's house, and there was no
'help for it." A few minutes later,
Godfrey saidi he followed Ilanna to
the house, and found him in a po
sition of undue intimacy with his wife.
Godfrey said he ordered IHanna out
of the house, and H-anna reached into
his pocket as if he were going to
draw a pistol. Thereupon Godfrey
fired upon Hanna, he said. Hanna
then ran out of the houtse, and God
frey followed him, and shot him twice
more.
i's. Godfrey testified that she was
not in the same room with the men
at the time of the shooting and de
nied the imputations of improper re
lations. Mrs. Godfrey's testimony was
to the effect that when she asked
Godfrey about the gun, her husband
said he had the gun to shoot 'him
,self with. When Hlanna urged him
not to shoot himself, Mrs. Godfrey
testitled, Godfrey immtedhately poiated
the gutnt at Hanna andi fired.
Several w~itesses were inltroIdaeed
by the defense to corroborate rela
tions between Mirs. Godfrey and I ian
nta. One wItness testified that he had
seen .\itrs. Giodftrey and Ilanna at
citurchel tob)other. A not h r test ifled
that hlit saw a womatn leave Hiannia's
